The speakers below have been around since the mid 90's when Response Audio first started. These were the Response Audio Model 5 and were the largest of 4 models we had out at the time. This was the first pair of these I built and were used at home since day one. I think they are broken in as they probably have around 15,000+ hours on them
I finally decided to bring them to the shop as I needed another reference speaker on hand. The speakers are a 3-way symmetrical WMTMW design using what I felt were the best drivers of the time and still hold their own. Given that the speakers and cabinets were done right the first time, I would venture to say these would still be competitive speakers.

I think as time allows, the only upgrades I may perform are upgraded tweeters and crossover components.
